DirectQuery to Dataset Issue I started off connecting to various sources (SharePoint Online lists and Excel), months ago. They are all import, and I could publish my report. I added a DirectQuery to Azure DevOps through Advanced Editor in Power Query Editor and I still had no issues in publishing my report. I then added DirectQuery to a Power BI Datasets, using the Get Data option in Power BI Desktop BUT now when I try publishing, I get the following message: My changes are not applied in the Workspace. Going to the service/my dataset that exists in a shared workspace I created, as I have access to create workspaces – I see the following: I tried manually refreshing the dataset and then got this message I have no issues in Power BI Desktop and I can refresh, so assume the online service is unable to refresh the dataset. So, I had a look online and found this guide Using DirectQuery for live connections, showing exactly what I am trying and that you can add this type of connection but that “Using DirectQuery for Power BI datasets and Analysis Services requires your report to have a local model.”. The issues I know face is that I do not have this option. What the guide says What I see in my report, I do not have ‘Make changes to this model’ I found another article, where you could be able to set the storage mode but for me, the option is greyed out What I should see What I see for DirectQuery to Power BI Dataset tables, the options is greyed out and I cannot change it This is also not changeable There are 3 shared Workspaces and I have admin access to be able to create shared workspaces. I am an admin on each of them so have full access to the datasets. I am the publisher of on one of the Datasets. Would appreciate it if anyone could let me know if they have faced this issue and if they managed to find a solution. According to the guides above, this should be possible. I have posted, asking for help but one of them is closed with no real resolution and the other is old with no updates: externally on other threads https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/This-dataset-includes-a-dynamic-data-source-Since-dynamic-data/m-p/3034288/highlight/true# https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Can-t-Make-Changes-to-Model-After-Connecting-to-Dataset/td-p/1678073# Starting my own thread in Desktop, Service and Power Query respectively https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Missing-Make-changes-to-this-model-option-in-desktop/m-p/3044833 https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Service-unable-to-refresh-dataset/m-p/3044815 https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Can-t-Make-Changes-to-Model-After-Connecting-to-Dataset/m-p/3042626#M1035002
